Our enhanced audio-visual systems is now live and we hope you will notice the difference in quality and enjoy the experience. We give heartfelt thanks for all who are still working tirelessly in hospitals and care homes and for those who are administering the vaccines to make our lives safe.Īll of our services of worship are continuing online, and now with a difference. We pray for those who mourn for the loss of loved ones and those living in anxiety, fear or isolation. We continue to hold in our prayers all those who have lost their lives (and livelihoods) as a result of this terrible virus. Our first priority remains the safety and wellbeing of everyone who comes to the Church so we shall continue to follow the ongoing advice of the Church of England and the direction of the Inner and Middle Temple – and we will monitor the position regularly. It is also a pleasure to be able once again to welcome wedding couples many of whom have had to postpone their plans (in some cases on more than one occasion), as well as baptisms. At the end of July we welcomed back the Bishop of London and Dean of the Chapels Royal, the Right Reverend Dame Sarah Mullally to our service of Baptism, Confirmation and Choral Communion which provided a wonderful end to the last year which had been so challenging for everyone in many different ways. As a new legal year begins it has been a great delight for us to welcome everyone back into the Church with our choral forces restored to full strength and to resume public worship after months of restrictions.
